Millenium 5A Maple Drumsticks -Wood- Reviews

Couldn't shake a stick at them!

Great for beating children sorry, drums. My young lad couldn't destroy them and they were light enough for him.

Very good sticks.

They're fine.

Bought a whole bunch of these to have around at the studio as back-up sticks. They feel good in the hand, not glossy, seem to be balanced well enough (at the very least the ones that I've already took out of the packaging), and the sound is fine, though obviously not as crisp and defined as ones with a plastic tip, but that's fine. The only thing to consider before buying into these is their durability - maple isn't the hardest wood in the first place, and considering the price, I don't believe that they will hold up against the test of time (or more likely, against the test of endless rim shots). They're fine to have around, but for live shows I would opt for something a bit sturdier. That said, none have broken yet, but it's too soon to tell as it's only been a bit over a week since I've started using these. For the price though it's great, even if used only for backup, further playing will show how they fare in the long run.

Solid Budget option

For the price, these are excellent drum sticks. The construction is solid and the shape is uniform and even. I would highly recommend for anyone not caught up with branded products.

Great drumsticks

If you're looking for a cheap pair of drumsticks, this is a great option.

Obviously the quality is not great, but they are useful for practicing and great for the prize.

Bang for the buck

If you consider that this is 1 Euro per stick option ... It cannot be cheaper than that. The only cheaper alternative would be snapping a branch of the tree.

That said, It does the job well. It feels comfortable enough and very light as well.

Millenium 5A Maple Drumsticks -Wood - Works Perfect

These drumsticks just never give up and just seriously last.

Drumsticks

Necessary sticks to play drums

good

good drum stick for new learner

Value for money

Lowest price ever yet a valuable pair of sticks.

Wood is softer than standard hickory, and could wear a bit faster, nonetheless is more than enough to get the job done no matter what.

PRO:

Unmatched quality vs price ratio

CONS:

You have to get used to different weight and overall balance, abit less durable

Definiitely not bad after all

Didn't expect much from these sticks...Tactile feeling, weight and balance are far from being at the top...nonetheless they are soooo cheap that you can get over it and just play with no worries if they break from time to time.

Not good

What did i expect from 2 euros sticks. Its not awful thought. Dont use it on electric or acoustic set you will break them :P I use them only at my practice pad.

Quality material

Used in practice and do their job well.

No cracks or splinters.

Great drumsticks

I bought it for my band made who is percussionist. He claims that for this price you won't find better drumsticks.

not great

i mean what did i expect when buying 2 euro drum sticks.

the work but dont sound good

Nice

Got them in bundle with millenium mps-150.

Great for me, well built.

Cheap, good but soft

These drum sticks are very cheap and nicely finished.

The shape of the tip is a matter of preference, I like more oval shaped tips. The sticks are very light.

However, maple is a very soft wood for drum sticks so the sticks get damaged pretty soon when paying acoustic drums, especially cymbals. I recommend for paying E-drums since they're light but for acoustic I recommend hickory or hornbeam sticks since these will break or wear soon.

Great Budget sticks

Great Price. But i bought these for my daughter who is a young beginner. They are a little to thick for her age. But hard to argue with the price.

bad, soft and weak

two sets for team rehearsal with a delicate pre-mix is ??far too much :)

Good quality for this price

Very light and easy to use, might break a little more easily, but why would you care for this price?

Pretty light, brake easily but really cheap and good for rehearsing and e drums

All said in the heading... Cheap, light and break easy. The weight match is also questionable. On the other hand, I use em for rehearsing because they are cheap and I like using sticks that are not chipped and since they easily brake I kinda always have a new pair in my hands. If you want to use em for gigging, have a few pairs on the side and be prepared to grab a new stick when the one you are holding brakes. I use them for e drums too. With e drums they do not brake and because they are light, they are more gentle on sensitive mesh heads and electronic cymbals.
